While an automotive minnow compared to larger companies, Subaru has been a highly profitable company for many years. It is noted for the production of conventionally-bodied cars driven from all four wheels (in fact, in many markets its entire range has this feature) and its usage of the relatively uncommon horizontally-opposed engine layout.
Subaru's best-known vehicles are high-performance turbocharged versions of its /Legacy? (known as Liberty in Australia), and /Impreza?, which offer outstanding performance and handling at relatively affordable prices. Modified versions of the Impreza WRX compete successfully in [car rallies]?.
